The drums beat in unison, the xun (a type of ancient Chinese wind instrument) played a long and melodious tune, the dance moves were intense and cunning, and the atmosphere was mysterious and majestic.
The entire street was illuminated by firelight, and almost everyone came to watch the street dance performance. As a result, the area was packed with people, all clapping and cheering happily.
Is she dreaming? How did she wake up one morning and find herself at a street dance party?!
Just as Zheng Quchi was watching this scene with complete concentration and holding his breath, a familiar voice came from behind him.
Is it pretty?
Zheng Quchi snapped out of his daze and turned to look.
But then she saw Liu Fengmian. He had changed his clothes. He was no longer wearing the pure white clothes he had worn before. Instead, he wore the white fox fur scarf she had given him and a dark-colored robe with dark patterns. It did not overshadow Chen Mao, but it made his fair skin and red lips even more striking.
Most importantly, in front of her, he no longer covered his eyes with a veil, but instead revealed his most authentic face, making it impossible for anyone to look away.
She asked in surprise, "Feng Mian? Why are we here?"
"Don't you like it? I thought you would be happy to see this lively scene." Yuwen Sheng's smile faded slightly.
Zheng Quchi understood, but was also incredibly surprised: "Of course I like it. I thought I would miss it, but how did you manage to bring me here?"
As she moved, she suddenly sensed something was wrong. She looked down and raised her arm, only to find that she had been dressed in a very expensive and luxurious suit.
"When...when did I change my clothes?" Her face froze.
Yuwen Sheng said slowly, "You wear the clothes your elder brother gave you during the day, and change into the ones I gave you at night. That's fair, isn't it?"
No, fairness is another matter, the main question is, who replaced it for her?
"Now that you're awake, would you like to go for a walk?"
Upon hearing this, Zheng Quchi immediately abandoned his shyness and embarrassment, and quickly replied, "Yes! But, your feet..."
"Don't worry, even if you don't walk, I can still accompany you shopping."

Zheng Quchi pushed Yuwen Sheng, who was sitting in a wheelchair, and the two walked slowly along the brightly lit street.
She was overwhelmed by the sights along the way. She watched the street dances and parades, and various lanterns hung in the city, shining brightly and colorfully. She listened to the songs playing on the street, and the night market stalls, fruits and sweets were all so new and exciting to her, who had traveled from the modern world.
"Fengmian..."
She carefully protected him from being bumped by others. Liu Fengmian looked up and saw the unstoppable smile on her face.
"Are you happy?" he asked.
Zheng Quchi paused for a moment, then thanked him sincerely: "I'm very happy and pleasantly surprised. Thank you."
Just then, someone bumped into her from behind. When she frowned and turned around, the person had already disappeared.
At that moment, a crumpled piece of paper was inexplicably stuffed into her palm.
